With a population of over 280,000, Ingham County is one of the most highly populated counties in Michigan. Lansing, the state capitol, is located within Ingham, along with the Michigan State University and several other prominent colleges. The County Clerk's office encourages genealogy and vital records researchers to visit, though a maximum of two at a time applies. Birth and death records are listed from 1867 to the present. Marriage records are from 1837, not long after the establishment of the county, to the present. Divorce records are not available at the office. The Genealogy Research page on the County Clerk website provides certificate applications which can be filled out and faxed to (517) 676-7254, or physically taken into the office, which is open Monday through Friday for normal business hours. Not only is Lansing the 5th largest city in Michigan, Ingham County is not far from Detroit, the largest city in the state.
